Three murders. Decades of silence. One breakthrough.
Tonight on Daily Scaries After Dark, we revisit three cold cases that sat unsolved for years — until modern forensic science changed everything.
The Lady of the Dunes — Ruth Marie Terry
She was found on a Cape Cod beach in 1974, hands severed, face beaten beyond recognition. For 48 years, no one knew her name. Then, in 2022, forensic genealogy finally gave her one.
Christine Jessop — Ontario, 1984
A nine-year-old girl vanished on her way home from school. An innocent man spent years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. The real killer wasn't confirmed until 2020 — long after he had died.
The Golden State Killer — California, 1974–1986
Fifty assaults. Thirteen murders. Then he simply disappeared into the suburbs. In 2018, a genealogist and a DNA database gave him a name: Joseph James DeAngelo.
Dim the lights. Get comfortable. These stories are now just whispers in the night.
